Facility for the conversion of three-phase AC with 50 Hz frequency from the public grid into single phase AC 16.7 Hz for the German Railway Corporation ( Deutsche Bahn AG). This facility replaces the generation of single phase AC in Unit 1 of Neckarwestheim Nuclear Power Plant and the rotary converter close to Unit 2 of Neckarwestheim Nuclear Power Plant

Powerline to Neckarwestheim Nuclear Power Plant. It carries a 380 kV three phase AC circuit, a 220 kV three phase AC circuit and on the lowest crossbar two 110 kV single phase AC circuits for power supply of the German Railway Corporation ( Deutsche Bahn AG). The insulators of the line are designed for 220 kV as in case of failures on the three phase AC lines high overvoltages can occur, which cannot stand an insulation designed for 110 kV.

Interesting pylon. Can you write wikimapia coordinates?

Powerlines near the construction site of the wind turbine at Ingersheim. The generated power will be fed in the 20 kV powerline in the foreground. The 110 kV powerline in the background connects Hoheneck substation with Heilbronn Thermal Power Station. Its branches run to Mundelsheim, Lauffen and Schwaigern.

A pylon of the powerline Hoheneck-Herbertingen near Sindelfingen at night. The bright object right of the pylon is the planet Venus.

Are or were PLC-systems in Ukraine ( and other states of former Soviet Union) on high voltage lines also used for other communication purposes than that of the company operating the powerline? The following picture, showing a PLC-coupling device on a strainer of HVDC Volgograd-Donbass ( I do not know where this strainer is, as HVDC Volgograd-Donbass is not completely high-resoluted on satellite pictures) implies that, as it is not situated at a substation or a similiar facility.

I suppose the double pylon of HVDC Volgograd-Donbass visible on wikimapia.org/#lat=48.7237019&lon=38.8570171&z=18&l=5&m=b has a similiar device installed.
Does someone know if some services not involved with power supply do or did use PLC-systems on powerlines? Thinkable would be teletype transmission to newspaper offices.
